Default Maf unit from a 96 cobra?

I wont be home for a week to check in person, but I have a maf unit for a 96 cobra in my garage as well as a 80mm unit that I had on my 95 lincoln mark8. Does anyone know if the sensor is the same size/shape/bolt pattern for those year cars and mine (89). Also, what size is the stock 96 cobra maf ?

And also would anyone like to buy one of them?

They won't work on a 5.0 if they are off a 4.6.

Not the sensor but the unit itself.

I think he means the housing and switching the actual sensor from his 89 to the larger maf housing?

the reason why it WONT work is because the sensor is calibrated to the size of the housing. that is why companies like C&L have different size sampling tubes for different injectors.

It was probably the no part... I dont hear that word well.

So the correct answer is yes, but I have to change the sampling tube, as the other unit I have is a C&L 80mm.
